Dog Shit

Dog Shit is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 26.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and berry and citrus flavor profile.

Dog Shit is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain notorious for its provocative name and equally off-putting aroma that genuinely resembles its namesake. The strain was created through a four-way crossbreeding program utilizing classic landrace genetics from Purple Zacatecas (Mexico), Colombian Gold, Cambodian, and Hippie Trail Afghani strains. This complex genetic heritage combines three pure sativa landraces with one indica landrace, resulting in a roughly 60% sativa and 40% indica hybrid. Despite its unpleasant scent that has been compared to actual fecal matter, Dog Shit transforms completely when combusted, producing smooth, palatable smoke with unexpectedly pleasant fruity and earthy flavors. The buds are typically small to medium-sized, adhering in popcorn-like formations with a dense, indica-typical structure. They display a mossy green coloration with slightly golden tinges due to abundant amber-colored trichomes covering both inner and outer surfaces. Red pistils are prominently visible throughout the flower structure. The strain has been documented for over 50 years in cannabis culture and remains a clone-only variety with no known commercial seed production.

Physiologically, Dog Shit produces rapid-onset effects beginning with pressure around the eyes and cheeks, followed by an uptick in cerebral thinking and free-association thought patterns. Users typically experience a surge of energy that enables completion of basic tasks and enhanced focus for both creative and analytical work. The initial sativa-dominant effects gradually transition into mild physical relaxation without causing heavy sedation, making it suitable for daytime use through early evening. The strain's THC content has been measured between 12% and 26%, with most samples averaging around 19%. The complex terpene profile is dominated by myrcene, contributing to its infamous odor but also providing therapeutic sedative properties when combined with the strain's other compounds.
